Description
José Saramago is one of the greatest writers of contemporary Portugal, a Nobel Prize in Literature laureate (1998), and the author of the scandalously famous “The Gospel According to Jesus.”
In the novel “[On] Seeing,” the reader will meet the “awakened” heroes of “Blindness.” In his favorite parable style, Saramago builds, in essence, a model of the world. He doesn’t judge, but pushes you to think; he doesn’t mock, but neither does he hide his sarcasm. “Since then, not a single political event has occurred that hasn’t been fully or partially described in [On] Seeing,” notes the translator of the novel A. S. Bogdanovsky. “And I’m not talking about Portugal. Just start reading the book to see—it’s about us too.”
